2 SAFETY
WARNING
DO NOT make sharp turns in the forward or reverse direction at excessive speed. Failure to observe the warning can
cause the scooter to tip over and may result in injury to user and/or damage to the product.
ALWAYS wear your seat positioning strap. Inasmuch as the seat positioning strap is an option on this scooter (you may
order with or without the seat positioning strap), Invacare strongly recommends ordering the seat positioning strap as an
additional safeguard for the scooter user. The seat positioning strap is a positioning belt only. It is not designed for use as a
safety device withstanding high stress loads such as auto or aircraft safety belts. If signs of wear appear, belt must be
replaced immediately.
DO NOT attempt to reach objects if you have to move forward in the seat or pick them up from the floor by reaching
between your knees.
To assure stability and proper operation of your powered scooter, you MUST, at all times, maintain proper balance. Your powered scooter has been
designed to remain upright and stable during normal daily activities.
Many activities require the scooter owner to reach, bend and transfer in and out of the powered scooter. These movements cause a change to the
normal balance, the center of gravity, and the weight distribution of the powered scooter. To determine and establish your particular safety limits,
practice bending, reaching and transferring activities in several combinations in the presence of a qualified healthcare professional before attempting
active use of the scooter. Proper positioning is essential for your safety.
